Reference in the history of education

This book is not only a book on the history of education in the world in its various eras, but it is also a valuable comprehensive encyclopedia that tells us the stories of human culture in its various scientific and artistic aspects, and describes the human mentality in its origins, growth and development. Primitive society shows us education in its most naive form. Life is devoid of all complexity - that complexity that distinguishes the finest types of cultures. We find that the elements that make up life, and which determine the goal of raising an individual, are naive in nature and few in number. We find that the individual is often influenced unconsciously by the means put in place to help him or force him to submit to public demands, which are the same conditions to which he must submit in order to be able to live with his brothers. When such methods are applied consciously, they become direct in their effect and general in nature. Whereas the student of education is only directly interested in the educational processes of advanced peoples - where the basic factors of education are so sophisticated and diverse that it is difficult to distinguish the basic phenomena of the purpose, the educational method, or the social or psychological methods, and where it is also difficult to analyze the results of those factors and their effects on each individual. And society - therefore, the value of studying education among primitive peoples, all the way to its study, is maximized
